PR – Ragin’ Cajun’s Stir Up the LSA D2 with First Ever Playoff Birth

Lafayette, LA – For the first time in the University of Louisiana Lacrosse team’s history, the Ragin Cajuns are going to the MCLA LSA Division II playoffs. In 2011 the Cajuns were a first year start up club and effectively finished in last place. In 2012, led by a group of talented freshmen and dedicated upper classmen, the Cajuns have sealed a second place seeding for the playoffs in College Station, Texas April 28-29, 2012.

The Cajuns who were plagued by injuries and inexperience earlier in the year will enter the playoffs at full strength and seasoned. The Cajuns will also have the experience of a new head coach, Pat Price, who joined the Cajuns mid season 2012. “We are going into the playoffs, with an explosive offense, a hardened defense and a dominant face off guy, this combination will keep every game we play competitive”, says Coach Pat Price. This philosophy was evident earlier in the season with a close 17-16 loss to Texas A&M, a LSA Div I team. Texas A&M also defeated LSA Div II top seed Sam Houston 15-10 earlier this season.

The Cajuns enter the playoffs with a 6-2 LSA record, 123 Goals, and 72% face off wins.
